I have an old AR with a 24" bull barrel, 8 twist. Looking for load suggestions. I have access to projectiles from 55 to 88 grns and a few of the "go to powders"
 
h4895 with a 75 grain slug seems to do well for me in my 9" bbl dpms ar... she'll dump 5 in an inch at 100... a bolt rifle or bull bbl'd ar should be better than this beater grade rifle... using cci mil-spec srm primers

Got the poweder and the primers. Need to get the projectiles
 

this one's out of stock at present, but shoots as well as the hornady
